Shadow Continent: Submerged Histories from Sahul

该项目旨在调查澳大利亚被淹没的海岸线的文化和环境历史，以及它们对澳大利亚地区过去和未来海平面上升的启示。利用对古萨胡尔大陆的科学认识，它希望产生关于环境变化和人海关系的新知识。该项目的预期成果包括加强在历史、遗产和考古领域建立学科合作的能力，并建立萨胡尔的第一个历史概述。利益包括建议保护和管理澳大利亚的水下文化遗产，以及一个叙事框架，以促进公众对澳大利亚深厚的人类历史的了解。

This project aims to investigate the cultural and environmental histories of Australia's drowned coastlines and what they reveal about past and future sea-level rise in the Australian region. Drawing on scientific understandings of the ancient continent of Sahul, it expects to generate new knowledge about environmental change and people-sea relationships. Expected outcomes of this project include enhanced capacity to build disciplinary collaborations in the fields of history, heritage and archaeology and establishing the first historical overview of Sahul. Benefits include recommendations to protect and manage Australia’s underwater cultural heritage and a narrative framework to advance public knowledge of Australia’s deep human history.
